These wonderful headphones worked beautifully since March. My daughter admits to dropping them. Also we did have some power outages which made me wonder about a power surge. The recharger lights up okay seems to be working. The headphones themselves have nothing. No power, no sound. We tried recharging them several times. We opened the battery compartment to see if they's become disloged but they are fine.
I had a similar problem - after owning them for 4+ years, no sound we
coming out, and no beeps -- nothing. The lights on the charger stand
were on though.
I tried buying new rechargable AAA batteries and they were NIMH (nickel
metalhydride?) and still didnt work. I borrowed a friend's pair of NICM
(nickel cadmium?) AAA rechargables though and the problem was solved!
So, it would seem the some of the new chargable battery types might not
work in older models of this unit (which is also called the RS 130 now
in the US and Cdn web sites).
Hope this helps!
Just found a solution to mine: Unplug power supply, take out batteries (prob not necessary), wait a minute a reconnect. Worked!
I tried regular AAA in their place as if it were a battery issued I would think that would help, rather than rushing out to buy new ones. Still nothing. Yes my daughter did drop them, but on carpet. One would think after paying $250 they would be more durable. I need to find the receipt and try the warranty I think as I've only had them 6 months. Actually I can't even find the right model Number. When I go to the Sennheiser web sit this model number isn't even listed and I don't see any other number on the headphones.
Replace the NiMh batteries. They might be bad. Could happen during power surges as you indicated you had. Let them charge up fully 14-18 hours as the book suggests.

I have spent countless hours trying to fix this issue, and I've gone to tons of forums. These headphones make this buzzing sound, all the time. And when I plug in my microphone jack it gives playback to my voice. I've tried unchecking playback and all that **** and nothing is working. Is there a driver I can download or something? Im using windows 7
